達磨初忌拈香：「破六宗之執，道被五天；斷二祖之疑，光流華夏。以致擊齒服毒，何莫由斯。休言隻影度流沙，熊耳峯前月如晝，瓣香盃茗，追慕遺音，一念萬年，真風不墜。」

> Offering incense on Bodhidharma's first memorial: "Shattering the attachments of the six schools, his path encompassed the five regions of India; cutting off the doubts of the Second Patriarch, his radiance flowed through China. Even suffering knocked-out teeth and taking poison—how was any of it not due to this? Speak not of a solitary shadow crossing the flowing sands; before Bear Ear Peak, the moon is like broad daylight. With a pinch of incense and a cup of tea, we fondly recall his bequeathed voice: a single thought for ten thousand years, the true style never falls to the ground."
